Answer:

The numer of valence electrons is defined as the number of electrons present in the outer most shell of the atom.So, in the case if selenium, there are 6.

Answer:

4 valence electrons

Despite the fact that the word silicon has a ubiquitous affiliation with all things electronic, Si itself is not a good electrical conductor. It has 4 valence electrons, meaning that filling its outer shell it can form a very strong lattice with 4 neighboring Si atoms-with no un-bonded electrons remaining

How can a substance stay at a certain temperature even though it is being heated?

SOVA2 [1]

The temperature of a certain substance can be seen as the average speed of the atoms or molecules in that substance. In the liquid state of a substance the forces between the atoms or molecules are strong enough to keep them together, however with enough freedom to move, unlike in the solid state. If we would have a closer look at the surface of a liquid from sideways, we would see water molecules jumping out of the water and reentering it again. The lower the water temperature would be the lesser the amount of water molecules leaving the liquid phase would be. If water would be heated up and the temperature will reach 100 degrees C at normal atmospheric pressure, more water molecules would leave the water than reentering. Boiling has started. The temperature of the water remains at 100 degrees C, if the heating continues as the average speed of molecules will not increase, only the rate of molecules leaving the water will increase, until all the water in liquid state has been vapourized. The amount of heat needed to vapourize liquid water is called latent heat. Latent heat is a very important driving factor in the atmosphere and thus the weather.

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473mL. What is the new pressure of gas?

Ratling [72]

Hello!

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473 mL. What is the new pressure of gas?

We have the following data:

Vo (initial volume) = 1.00 L

V (final volume) = 473 mL → 0.473 L

Po (initial pressure) = 1 atm (pressure exerted by the atmosphere - in STP)

P (final pressure) = ? (in atm)

We have an isothermal transformation, that is, its temperature remains constant, if the volume of the gas in the container decreases, so its pressure increases. Applying the data to the equation Boyle-Mariotte, we have:

$P_0*V_0 = P*V$

$1*1 = P*0.473$

$1 = 0.473\:P$

$0.473\:P = 1$

$P = \dfrac{1}{0.473}$

$\boxed{\boxed{P \approx 2.11\:atm}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\green{\checkmark}$

Answer:

The new pressure of the gas is 2.11 atm

`Remember that an acid is something that donates hydrogen ions. So, when considering the formula HC2H3O2 (acetic acid), which of

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The H in the carboxyl group.

Explanation:

Acetic acid can be written as CH₃COOH, where -COOH is the functional group carboxyl, responsible for the acidity of organic acids. The H in the carboxyl group is the one that is donated in the acid reaction.

CH₃COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺

Acetic acid is a weak acid, so just a small fraction of the molecules undergo this reaction to donate their hydrogen.

Which statement is true about air temperature and humidity

lapo4ka [179]

Complete Question:

Which statement is true about air temperature and humidity?

Group of answer choices.

a. the air temperature does not affect how much moisture the air can hold

b. hotter air holds less moisture than colder air.

c. hot air and cold air share the same amount of moist.

d. colder air holds less moisture than hotter air.

Answer:

d. colder air holds less moisture than hotter air

Explanation:

Weather can be defined as the atmospheric conditions of a particular area over a short period of time.

The elements of weather include precipitation, wind, temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, cloud, and wind speed.

Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of coldness or hotness of a physical object (body).

On the other hand, humidity refers to the concentration (amount) of water vapor that is present in the air. It is high when there's a lot of water vapor in the air and low when the level of water vapor is small.

Hence, the true statement about air temperature and humidity is that colder air holds less moisture than hotter air because as the air cools, its molecules move closer together while the molecules move farther apart as the air become hot.

Additionally, at constant humidity, relative humidity is inversely proportional to temperature i.e as the temperature decreases, relative humidity increases.
